Wow, quite an informative thread! Thanks for making it! Its such a shame Nintendo doesn't do their own factory there but I guess it makes sense if the sales don't justify it. They aren't exactly as big as Sony or MS so if they spend a lot of money on something with a low return, it doesn't really make a good business decision.

But it does suck none the less. Can't the people in Brazil just like download the games digitally and use the US eshop or something?

Yes we can. There are some issues though.

While the eShop shows the games prices in BRL, when you try to buy the debt on the credit card is made in USD. So if you don't have a internacional credit card it will refuse the purchase. Than you need to buy those eShop cards codes on the internet to charge your account.

Still it is sad. I love retail and i like to build my collection with them . I was waiting to get Captain Toad on retail, but now i know why it didn't showed up yet.
I think i am going to give up and get it digitally.

Oh, I see. What region is your eshop currently at?

And it is a shame that International laws prevent people from enjoying great games. I wish games could have a lot less restrictions but alas, what can ya do. I do hope Nintendo comes back to Brazil soon enough though and hopefully, this won't be forever
